Suhas Dalvi - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive protection with minimal false positives enhances threat management
Cynet's real-time threat detection has helped reduce risks for our organization overall. Cynet's centralized control feature is very user-friendly, has a good user interface, and is very convenient, requiring hardly one or two people to manage the entire console, which is not resource-heavy and automates many processes, making it very easy to use without alert fatigue due to low false positives. Autonomous Breach Protection has helped us mitigate threats proactively by being highly automated, requiring very few people to manage it for forensics and investigation due to its low false positive rate, which is less than 1.3%, and it doesn't consume much memory, making it light on the endpoints. Cynet is the only platform in the industry in the endpoint XDR that meets all steps of the MITRE ATT&CK framework, scoring on all 143 odd steps, with a false positive rate of less than 1.3%. Cynet's machine learning algorithms are very effective in adapting to new threats.

A scalable and stable tool that offers users a great GUI
Though I have not extensively worked on LogRhythm NDR, I know the need for a compute side since, in the past, we had required the compute side to deploy the solution in one of our company's client's infrastructure. The product's setup phase was easy and not complicated. The deployment process of LogRhythm NDR can vary between three and four weeks, depending on the skill set of the people involved in the deployment process. For deployment of the product, you have to purchase the license from LogRhythm, and you have to ensure that the compute side is ready for LogRhythm. After you deploy NDR and sensors in the premises of our company's customer on the SPAN and TAP port, and once the logs go through throughput, you can see the logs coming to LogRhythm NDR's console.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We are using almost all of the features and we find it quite good overall."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The product has valuable front-end features."
"The visibility it gives is excellent."
"My clients have used Cynet since it is a very automated solution with excellent detection capabilities."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"In terms of incident response, Cynet can contain attacks, offer a trial period to customers, and uninstall if not continued. The most valuable aspect is its integration capabilities, covering endpoints and network data for a comprehensive view of threats."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution doesn't require the creation of rules or use cases from scratch, which assists our delivery team in installation and deployment. Its dashboard is user-friendly."
"It's an excellent security tool with a user-friendly interface that's easy for anyone to use."
 

Cons

"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability of this product for new threats. Meaning, not everything which is new is properly seen by the product and not all the required actions are taken."
"I suppose everybody's working on AI these days. So, I would like to see more about AI-based threats."
"Previously, we used Cynet, but transitioned to Trend Micro due to the lack of complete SSO services, which were costly."
"They have some things in the pipeline, we understand, and they're going to be able to support Android and all these other devices soon. The key is the devices - which is an aspect that is lacking right now. Every company has that problem, not just Cynet."
"SIEM - Although with their Centralised Log Management Cynet has created the basis for SIEM functionality, this is to be expanded in the near future."
"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."
"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard."
"The reporting is a little weak and could be improved. The other downside is that Cynet does not use the local time zone. It's based off of Greenwich Mean Time."
"There are opportunities for improvement, particularly in upgrading the expertise of local professionals and addressing support issues, which could potentially lead to cost reduction."
"From an improvement perspective, I would like LogRhythm NDR to reduce the compute size. I would also like LogRhythm NDR to improve the pricing model."
"The tool has one limitation compared to its competitors. It does have a mobile app for NDR monitoring. Moreover, there is only operational training and not deployment training."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"The pricing was good."
"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"Cynet is very affordable."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"The price is very competitive."
"It gives you a high level of protection at a very good price."
"There are certain payments to be made towards the licensing costs attached to the product yearly. The pricing of LogRhythm NDR falls under the mid-range, in my opinion."
"The tool costs are two million rupees for 5000 users."
"When looking at the market and comparing it with other vendors, the cost seems relatively high."
